“…It is not very clear how tokenization and standoff annotation should work when tags are used extensively inside the basic data (cf. Cayless and Soroka, 2010;Bánski and Przepiórkowski, 2009).…”

In this paper we describe a practical approach to the challenge of linguistic retrodigitization. We propose to distinguish strictly between a base digitization and separate interpretation of the sources. The base digitization only includes a literal electronic transcript of the source. All sources are thus simply treated as strings of characters, i.e. as unstructured corpora. The often complex structure as found in many dictionaries and grammars will subsequently (and possibly much later) be added as Linked Data in the form of standoff annotation. A further advantage of this approach is that the complete digitization and interpretation can be performed collaboratively without a complex organizational superstructure.

“…The source attribute is not yet allowed on author, title, and a number of other elements. However, it will be made a global attribute in the next TEI release[http12, 2016;Cayless, 2016]. 3 Syriaca.org uses the ISO 639 Syriac macrolanguage code "syr" for all Syriac, despite the fact that there is a separate and, so far, unrelated ISO 639 code "syc" for "Classical Syriac."…”

Despite increasing interest in Syriac studies and growing digital availability of Syriac texts, there is currently no up-to-date infrastructure for discovering, identifying, classifying, and referencing works of Syriac literature. The standard reference work (Baumstark's Geschichte) is over ninety years old, and the perhaps 20,000 Syriac manuscripts extant worldwide can be accessed only through disparate catalogues and databases. The present article proposes a tentative data model for Syriaca.org's New Handbook of Syriac Literature, an open-access digital publication that will serve as both an authority file for Syriac works and a guide to accessing their manuscript representations, editions, and translations. The authors hope that by publishing a draft data model they can receive feedback and incorporate suggestions into the next stage of the project.
